Competitions Discussion Thread Part 6

your heart has got to be in it i think for postal comps, im seeing some good wins now but did wonder before if it was worth it, i have no idea how much i spend on stamps, dont want to know either:rotfl:

i was turned down for the survey too, but did get my free stamps though:D

got my sil to get labels printed off so i dont have to write my address out, she has got me 2100 labels, think that will do me a few weeks at least:rotfl:

yeah, I was wondering if more people enter the pscard ones as well, because its the old school method of comping? omg ppd, thats a fab idea with the labels!!! thanks xxx

I took my OH on a day out several weeks ago - he thought it was a nice drive and lunch..... it was really to collect 6000 postcards I got on ebay, the seller offered to double the amount if I collected in person as the postage costs were high. It was then he knew I was / am an addict!!!
:beer:

Miss_Cinnabon

yep and she is charging me £9.99 for the privilege:rotfl:

thats the only downside to writing loads for postals, you end up with a really sore hand:rolleyes:

I don't enter many postcard entries, DD does every now & again but I get loads of postcards free from local cinema amonst other places. HTH

P.S Going bowling tomorrow with family then Pizza Hut (with my 50% off voucher!) which is next to cinema so will be sending DD into cinema to get me some more postcards lol

It was originally £20 for 3000, the seller was going to charge £15 delivery, so he agreed to sell me 6000 for £30 and we had a lovely drive to the seaside!!!

They were athena ones too very nice - and last week £17 on stamps, but I too have won several items easily covering the outlay

I an reading this thinking I am a tad on the mad side!!!
